This was the last week of Round 1 matchups, and now the competition moves to Round 2. Round 2 will see the 8 remaining cooks competing for 1 of 4 spots in the live cook- off finale on November 2 at the Hyatt Regency Woodfield Schaumburg. The rules in Round 2 are a little different than Round 1. In Round 2 all cooks must use the 4 mandatory key ingredients, but they can only use 8 additional ingredients to create a dish!

The recipes will be judged by a panel of chefs and food professionals as well as reader votes. For more details about this round of Cook of the Week Challenge click here, or check out the Cook of the Week Challenge Facebook page!
